Bike_thing
Host a Biker

This summer, Hazon is offering opportunities for people across the US and Israel to "grab life by the handlebars" and join one of 4 Jewish environmental bike rides. The most ambitious ride is the 10-week Cross-USA ride from Seattle, WA to Washington, DC. The half-way point of the Cross-USA ride is right here in St. Paul! Beth Jacob and the St. Paul JCC are working together on learning and volunteer programs for the riders; more on that later. Now, we are looking for host families to provide a soft bed, a hot shower, and a warm Minnesota welcome to a road-weary cyclist from Thursday afternoon, July 12 - Sunday morning, July 15. Contact Beth Gendler at the St. Paul JCC to volunteer!
